Dear Alex,
It's their system (Solaris) and they can do whatever they want to it. These
include files are system files property of Sun.
The issue is whether kannel can build on Solaris or not. Right now it can't,
and I am not certain that this is a problem only with Solaris 10.
Granted it is not the first time that you make workarounds for particular
OS's "percularities". What's one more?
BTW, If I remove this constraint kannel builds fine on Solaris. Am I to
worry that I have a corrupted build? For what reason did C99 was introduced
after 1.4.1?
BR,
Nikos

Subject: Re: configure patch for building with Solaris
Hi,
we definitely need C99, this is configure that checks for gnu99...
I think this is a bug in solaris and kannel has nothing todo with it.
Thanks,
Alex

Hi list,
A couple of changes in configure so that it builds in Solaris. It checks
if os = solaris and CC = gcc and releaves the requirement for gnu99
compiler (gcc after all is). Definition of gnu99 clashes with Sun's
definition of HUGE_VAL in /usr/include/iso/math_c99.h
Can someone explain me why the sudden interest for gnu99 compiler? It
didn't used to be so in 1.4.1 and kannel was compiling fine back then.
BR,
Nikos
